Private Orlistat Prescription - Compare Your Options
How Orlistat Helps Weight Loss Through Private Prescription
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed in your digestive system. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially reducing calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Through EverydayMeds' private prescription service, you can access orlistat without NHS waiting lists or GP appointments.
Following an online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, treatment may be prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 or above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure.

Why Choose Private Prescription Over NHS
Private prescription through EverydayMeds offers significant advantages over NHS routes. You can complete your clinical assessment online without booking GP appointments or joining waiting lists. Our UK-licensed prescribers review applications within 24 hours, and approved prescriptions are dispensed immediately by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
This streamlined process means you can start your weight management programme faster, with next day delivery available across the UK. The prescription is included in the price - no separate consultation fees or GP charges.
The Private Prescription Process
Getting started with private orlistat prescription is straightforward. Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A qualified UK prescriber reviews your application and, where clinically appropriate, issues your prescription.
Once approved, your chosen orlistat product is dispensed by our MHRA-regulated pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery in discreet packaging. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from application to delivery.
Clinical Support and Safety
All EverydayMeds prescribers are UK-licensed healthcare professionals who assess treatment suitability individually. Orlistat may cause gastrointestinal side effects, particularly when eating high-fat meals, but these can be minimised by keeping dietary fat intake low (approximately 15g per meal).
Your prescriber will provide guidance on safe usage, including taking one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. A daily multivitamin supplement is recommended, taken at bedtime.
